Yes it looks like a great engine, and yes I'd buy any games made using it (which were good games mind you).

.. BUT, I think we need an open sourced engine similar to this.
Something open source which can make money if the end product is sold (or the developer gets money for this product) while the engine is available for people to freely develop on and release nicer free games.

I just find it a bit disappointing when something could be so much more.

They are doing nice work though.

Huge developments happen in BGE (Blender Game Engine) right now, with the help of a commercial sponsor:

It would be really cool to get some more Linux games which look state of the art. Quake 3 or similar engine are certainly not bad - and run fast even on old pcs, but of course you want to see some better gfx on a fast system too. Multi platform engines are definitely the best way for this. Linux only would be a joke, but when you can run it from gameing console to Linux, Mac and Win then you reach much more users - and don't forget the marketing value of Linux games. Even if there would be only 1% desktop linux users, then lots of em want to play games, and multiplattform games are definitely first choice for em usually...
